Hello everyone,
Now it continues, with looking for ideas, organising, drawing, so that my buddy can make this for me with his big laser cutter. I will install the drive unit bolted together as a whole unit. Why? If there is a problem, 6x M4 screws are loosened and the whole machinery including the paddle wheel can be removed. Again another challenge. I have separated the upper removable part and because of the Denes steam units I will mount them permanently. This way there will be no tangled ropes when preparing for the trip. Needs a little time now. I am still waiting for my little laser cutter! π‘ . . Where are you . . . ? A Hello Fromm the CH, Michel-Cl. ▲

Hello all
Unfortunately, some things go wrong today, parts and hull are worse off than expected . . . Someone sent me a cool saying: the one waits for the time to change, the other grabs it and acts! Who I am there is clear, right? Good craft time everyone, greetings Michel-Cl. PS: Captain Haddock is desperate, I am not! π€£π€£π€£π€£ ▲

Hello hobbyists!
Once again a defeat, various parts rotten ... But we are all stalwarts! I won't let it get me down! Don't worry, it will soon look different. Yours Michel-Cl. Ps: You can see in picture 3 the water steamer from the manufacturer Denes Design. Space I have enough for two ▲

Well my dear hobbyists,

So damp and planted my craft room is not! π Now the lower part is in my office and it is measured , drawn , ideas sought . . .from time to time I have to open the window to air my smoking brain . . . Work work work, see you later your Michel-Cl ▲

Hello folks,
Start tonight, gather goods, arrange plans and copy. A lot of preparation for a clear process. . . Here is the first hurdle: The rear wheel. Enclosed are a few impressions of my start. The aluminium blade plates are not 100% correct, even with laser-cut parts you have to add something to the measurement, but even this is often not enough. In addition, I am still waiting for my laser plotter / cutter. It just doesn't want to come to me ... Wait and see. Hobbyist greetings Michel-Cl. PS: The 2nd photo is a pattern with a real rivet. This is how it should look in the end ▲

Hello Hello!
The fishing boat Aline is ready and waiting to be launched. Now the time has come! Starting next week, this will be my building site for a few months. Now it's time to collect photos, repaint the hull, study plans etc. etc. Soon comments will appear here on this port dock. If anyone has any experience tips for this model, please write to me. Thanks in advance! Greetings from central Switzerland without snow (crap!) Michel-Cl. ▲

Hello Peejay!
Thank you very much for your tips. I already have contact with the webmaster who will help me! Wait and see what tips come in! Thanks again. Best regards Michel-Claude PS: In your link I found a lot of good photos that really help me. It doesn't always have to be 1: 1, a little imagination and your own ideas are simply part of it. ▲

Do a search on John Fryant Steamboat plans. The Chaperone was available through his Paddlewheels and Props catalog.
